Black Screen on Ventoy Persistence Plugin..!!

[zerocoolroot]

Hi,

Firstly, thank you so much by your amazing tool..!!

Sorry my bad english, I'm from Brazil..!!

I tryed to use Ventoy Persistence Plugin but I get the Black Screen after I choose persistence_ext4_4GB_vtoycow.dat or persistence_xfs_4GB_vtoycow.dat.

Both .dat files are persistence folder.

I did like this.

Or

After I choose F33 Work, I get the Black Screen below..!!

My ventoy.json code..!!

Thanks in advance..!!

Does this iso file boot OK without persistence config?

Yes..!!

@ventoy

If you help, follow the ISO link below.

[ventoy]

Does it work if you use a standard fedora release (e.g. Fedora-Workstation-Live-x86_64-33-1.2.iso) ?

[ventoy]

1. Ventoy doesn't support persistence for Fedora with an osmin.img (/LiveOS/osmin.img). You must remove this from the ISO file.
2. The initramfs in this ISO file doesn't contain xfs.ko, so you need to use persistence_ext4_4GB_vtoycow.dat

@ventoy

I tried to use Fedora-Workstation-Live-x86_64-33-1.2.iso and persistence_ext4_4GB_vtoycow.dat, and works fine..!!

But the Fedora Updated (e.g. Linux_Fedora_Work_Live_x64_v33_15.03.2021.iso) doesn't works fine..!!

[ventoy]

Use this CI release: https://github.com/ventoy/Ventoy/actions/runs/761962986

Attention You need to add selinux=0 option to the kernel boot option. (press tab at the F33 Work boot menu, add selinux=0 at the end and press enter to boot.

Attention You need to add selinux=0 option to the kernel boot option.

Is it possible to make this change permanent?

[bassmannate]

Agreed. If this could be made permanent, that would be great. Also, I got the F33 Work menu the first time I booted with persistence and now I can't remember how I did it.
